What The Chinese Zodiac Says About Your Takeaway Tastes

The Lunar New Year is almost here, which means at some stage over the next few days you and some mates will gather around Google comparing the traits of your zodiac animals.

These might tell you a bit about your personality and luck but even the most complicated of charts won’t tell you what kind of foodie you are. So we’ve consulted the stars (and a few fortune cookies) and decoded what your sign means about your hunger habits.

Rat

A drive for sneaky snacking means you’ll grab whatever you can from your mates order, even while you’re still eating yours.

Ox

You graze all day and like to eat slowly and really savour your food. You’re 100% convinced you have more than one stomach and at least one of them always has room for dessert.

Tiger

You live by the immortal words of Ron Swanson, “ If it doesn’t have meat, it’s a snack.”

Rabbit

Food is about passion for you, the more exciting and evocative it is, the faster you’ll finish it.

Dragon

Whatever your order is, it’s gotta have heat. The spiciest thing the restaurant can make, is what you’re having for dinner.

Snake

Friends make fun of you for how quickly you eat. You figure, why waste time chewing?

Horse

Your body is a finely tuned machine. All you want is lean, clean, lots of green.

Goat

Your tastes are adventurous but you also want what’s easy. You’ll eat anything and everything as long as it’s within reach.
